The Fundamentals of Technology classes studied about
flight and the four forces acting on an airplane: lift, thrust, gravity,
and drag. The students learned a great deal in the unit. After going over
the worksheet, the students designed an airplane within parameters and
cut it out on the laser. Once cut out they assembled the parts, installed
a motor and experimented flying it around a pole. Some of the students
had some trouble getting them to fly, but with a few adjustments most planes
flew. Mr. George Hager volunteered his time in the two classes assisting
the students with Mr. Richardson in getting the students planes assembled.
Mr. Hager drew up the initial plan for the plane and assembled a model
for the students to follow. The students had a good time and learned a
great deal. From left to right in the top photo are: Joe Schumacher, James
Hager, Kristin Hill, Eli Rad, Jeremy Ross, Kyle Holthaus, Derek Schaeffer,
and Amber Frei. Not pictured are Amber Holthaus, Dustin Schaeffer, Chris
Schmidt, Jake Seubert, and Branden Waller. In the bottom photo from left
to right the students are: Brandon Poxleitner, Wyatt Williams, Jack George,
Hilaree VanderPas, Sam Spencer, Kelsey Marker, Natosha Schaeffer, Taylor
Ratcliff, Curt Forsmann, and Andrew Gabica, Not pictured is Tobie Lovell.
